ANNOTATION

This is a true story of a young boy, who after the death of his father at the age of eleven, lost his sight due to detached retinas in both eyes. He tells how all of this effected his life, as well as those in his family, and how he dealt with it as a teenager in a public school where drugs became his escape. His experiences with rejection are typical of those faced living their lives with disabilities and handicaps all over the world.

He eventually went into full time ministry in his early twenties and relates how the rejection, due to his blindness, carried over into Christian ministry work. He concludes his story by detailing his search for the Spirit filled life and how this experience changed the way he lived.

The title, “LIQUID PURPLE,” comes from his blurred vision experienced before surgery after an intense examination of his inner eye with bright magnified lights.
